A future city for handicapped workers

This project was for a drawing of future city to work together (A) people with disabilities and (B) people with no disabilities. The team suggested a future city where there will be a sixth sense community, comprised of (A),(B), and (C) new companies. The companies have new technologies to share handicapped people’s super abilities (e.g., highly developed tasting ability) with other colleagues. Current technologies can share sense, but it still needs development to commercial and popularisation of the technology. If it is possible, and the future city exists, the following list can be expected.

(1) Reduce the gap for more equality in society

(2) Form a competitive community by combining people with physical disabilities and able people

(3) Exploit super abilities of people with physical disabilities (e.g. blind people perceive touch faster than those with sight)
